Psalms 32
1 Those whom God has forgiven for rebelling against him, whose stains [MET] of sin have been wiped away, are truly blessed [by God]!
Ti Dafidi. Maskili. Ìbùkún ni fún àwọn tí a dárí ìrékọjá wọn jì, tí a sì bo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn mọ́lẹ̀.
2 Those whose record of their sins Yahweh has erased, those who no longer do deceitful things, are [truly] blessed [by God]!
Ìbùkún ni fún ọkùnrin náà ẹni tí Olúwa kò ka ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀ sí i lọ́rùn àti nínú ẹ̀mí ẹni tí kò sí ẹ̀tàn.
3 When I did not confess my sins, (my body/I) was very weak and sick, and I groaned (all day long/continually).
Nígbà tí mo dákẹ́, egungun mi di gbígbó dànù nípa ìkérora mi ní gbogbo ọjọ́.
4 Day and night, [Yahweh], you [SYN] punished me severely. My strength drained away like [water that] ([evaporates/dries up]) on a hot summer [day].
Nítorí pé ni ọ̀sán àti ní òru ọwọ́ rẹ̀ wúwo sí mi lára; agbára mi gbẹ tán gẹ́gẹ́ bí ooru ẹ̀ẹ̀rùn. (Sela)
5 [Then/Finally] I admitted/confessed my sins to you; I stopped trying to hide them. (Think about that!) I said [to myself], “I will confess to Yahweh the wrong things that I have done.” And [when I confessed them], you forgave me, so now I (am no longer guilty/will no longer be punished) for my sins.
Èmi jẹ́wọ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi sí ọ àti pé èmi kò sì fi àìṣòdodo mi pamọ́. Èmi wí pé, “Èmi yóò jẹ́wọ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi fún Olúwa,” ìwọ sì dárí ẹ̀bi ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi jì mí. (Sela)
6 Therefore, the people who are godly should pray to you [when they] (realize that they have sinned/have difficulties). If they pray to you, [difficulties] [MET] will not overwhelm them [like] a great flood.
Nítorí náà jẹ́ kí gbogbo àwọn olódodo máa gbà àdúrà sí ọ ní ìgbà tí a lè rí ọ; nítòótọ́ nígbà tí ìṣàn omi ńlá bá ru sókè, wọn kì yóò lè dé ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀.
7 You are [like] a place where I can hide [from my enemies] [MET], you protect me from troubles, and you (enable me/[put people around me who will enable me]) to shout, praising you for saving me [from my enemies].
Ìwọ ni ibi ìpamọ́ mi; ìwọ yóò pa mí mọ́ kúrò nínú ìyọnu; ìwọ yóò fi orin ìgbàlà yí mi ka. (Sela)
8 [Yahweh says], “I will teach you about how you should conduct your life. I will instruct you and watch over you.
Èmi yóò kọ́ ọ, èmi yóò sì fi ẹsẹ̀ rẹ lé ọ̀nà tí ìwọ yóò rìn èmi yóò máa gbà ọ́ ní ìyànjú, èmi yóò sì máa fi ojú mi tọ́ ọ.
9 Do not be stupid like horses and mules that do not have understanding; they need (bits/pieces of metal put in their mouths) and (bridles/ropes fastened to their head) so they will go in the direction you want them to go.”
Má ṣe dàbí ẹṣin tàbí ìbáaka, tí kò ní òye ẹnu ẹni tí a gbọdọ̀ fi ìjánu bọ̀, kí wọn má ba à súnmọ́ ọ.
10 Wicked people will have many [troubles that will make them] sad, but those who trust in Yahweh will experience him faithfully loving them all the time.
Ọ̀pọ̀ ìkáàánú ní yóò wà fún ènìyàn búburú, ṣùgbọ́n ìfẹ́ Olúwa tí ó dúró ṣinṣin ni yóò yí àwọn tí ó ní ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé nínú Olúwa ká.
11 [So, all] you righteous people, rejoice about what Yahweh [has done for you]; you whose (inner beings/lives) are pure, be glad and shout joyfully!
Ẹ yọ̀ nínú Olúwa, kí ẹ sì ní inú dídùn, ẹ̀yìn olódodo; ẹ sì máa kọrin, gbogbo ẹ̀yìn tí àyà yín dúró ṣinṣin.
